Stoop Kid Lyrics

I grew up in a house that was full of smoke

I didn't burn it down

I grew up on a farm full of chickens

They cluck when the sun goes down

I grew up in the city, grew up in the city

I'll never grow up again

I grew up in the city, I'll say I grew up in the city

If anyone asks me again

I grew up in a house it was burning

Down, down, down

I grew up in a broken little town

But I'll tell you I grew up in the city, grew up in the city

Yeah, that's what I'll say to you

I'm a girl from the city, a boy from the city

Yeah, that's what I'll say

'Til it's true

One, two, three, four

I won't tell you where I grew up, no I won't

You won't think I'm pretty anymore

I won't leave this house with you, no I won't

My heart is buried under the floor

So maybe one day I'll grow up

Stop drinking out of sippy cups

And then you'll grow to see that I was right all along

I can breathe and get a job

And I'll stop singing shitty songs

And maybe we can find a way to make our lives okay

I've given up on composition books

I never fill them

I'm not scared of spiders anymore

No I can kill them

But I'll cry, to watch them die

One day I'll be eighty and I still won't make that phone call

Sometimes when I breathe I wonder if my lungs are filled with all

The particles of people dead and dusty in the air

And it comforts me to know that one day I will die

And I'll be in there, too

I'll be in there, too

I'll be in there, too
